Breaking The Clouds

Having been a faculty in the Department of Psychiatry and Human Behavior at the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University and served as the Director of Psychiatry Consultation Service at the Miriam Hospital in Rhode Island, I’m currently working and practicing for the federal government. During my years of practice, I have also realized that there is a great need in the community for people to learn about mental health care and how the medical system works in the United States. I’m delighted to work with jun and others here to help answer some common questions related to the mental health care system often encountered by Chinese Americans. This effort is done outside of my job at my leisure time. Keep in mind that my answers are not meant for treatment but should be regarded as only a reference and/or as a general resource. For individual cases and specific questions regarding specific treatments, you must talk to your own doctors for appropriate treatment or referral to specialists. Please also note that my opinions here are my own only; they do not represent any opinions of the U.S. federal government.

我曾任职布朗大学医学院精神科，并担任其附属医院精神病会诊科主任。我现为美国联邦政府工作。在我多年的行医中发现华人社区很需要了解这个国家精神卫生保健及其系统的问题。在此我很乐于在这个网站上，利用我工作以外的闲暇时间回答一些社区中关于精神健康方面的常见问题。请注意，我的专栏和问题回答并不代表针对个人问题的治疗方案，而只能作为普通意义上的参考而已。对于个别病例的具体问题和具体的治疗方案，您必须寻问您自己的医生，接受进一步的治疗或者找专家诊断。同时请注意，我在这里的见解只是我自己的;它们并不代表联邦政府的任何意见。
